I was induced and induced with oxytocin drips is 10times worst then normal contractions! My pain threshold is high so I didnt take epidural only took gas, but at 6cm and my gynae increases the drips from 30ml to 60ml that is when I wanna give up so I took the epidural, I get to sleep for an hour and the contractions came back again I was already 9cm open and I decided to push my baby out! In the labour suite for 6 hours only.
